A Week of Crafty Gatherings: Craft Soiree & Etsy Craft Party

Last week, I attended my very first Craft Soiree, organized by Alessa Lanot of Life After Breakfast.

It was the perfect girly gathering of crafters. It was great to meet others who just love doing crafts and who have made good business out of them. I was amazed by the talent and passion of the other crafters. I was inspired to be creative and to create. I made rose brooches and they were given out as takeaways for other crafters.

You can check out Alessa's blog feature on the Craft Soiree and its crafters here. And as if one craft party wasn't enough in one week, I attended another one organized by Craft MNL for Etsy.

Etsy is probably the biggest online selling site for handmade stuff, while Craft MNL is a cool craft workspace in Makati. They hold various craft workshops and host craft events. Check out Craft MNL's blog feature on the Etsy Craft Party 2012 here.

Halllooo! I'm Gantsilyo Guru!

"Gantsilyo" is a Filipino word taken from the Spanish word "ganchillo," which means "crochet."

I'm a crocheter from the Philippines! I've been crocheting since high school. My very first crochet project was in home economics class. It was a 3-D christmas tree. Our teacher didn't want to accept my project because she couldn't believe I made it. Since then, I've been hooked!
